Officers identified the man as Dillon Kloehn. On August 8, a call came to the Sheriff’s office that Kloehn was walking around in boxers, possibly with a knife, and went to a Dollar General in Walker.
Deputies arrived at the Dollar General just after 7pm and spoke to an employee that said Kloehn tried to jump over the counter at her. The employee did say Kloehn was wielding a knife. Officers advised the Kloehn to drop his knife, and Kloehn would make threats saying he was going to stab or cut officers. Kloehn would then charge the officers when an officer shot Kloehn.
